Building Foundations: Developing Skills for Life

This module uses award-winning middle school literature to teach the critical life skills of communication, decision-making, and reaching goals. Most of the ten sessions begin with a passage from a novel, short story, or poem that illustrates a theme related to communication, decision making, or reaching goals. Students read, analyze, and write about the text and then focus on learning and practicing some aspect of the skill. This module develops students’ literacy skills, as well as their life skills. It may be taught in an interdisciplinary fashion by health educators and language arts teachers or reading specialists. This publication includes reproducible student handouts and transparencies, as well as a videotape for teachers that features a health educator and a language arts teacher planning and teaching activities from the module..
